TOM HEAVY 140 Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 alright lads, just got my first pair of kits, well cool! they 8/9 week old a silver and a sandy. The dog has never seen a ferret before so got a bit of a task, i think he is doing extremely well, as he is very steady. the box is getting extended and developed further, need to get some sort of playground sorted for them just getting them used to being handled, collars on/off. In and out of box, introducing dog etc here they are... 3 Quote Link to post
rabbit demon 302 Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Nice wee kits, hope they do you proud, always better off with more than one, keep each other company and give you a good laugh when you see them playing, good luck with them. 1 Quote Link to post

Ferret kent 12g 17 Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Nice looking kits mate, I got two 8week old gills yesterday but polecat markings , do your one like to fight with your hand ? As one of mine bites a bit hard. ? Quote Link to post
TOM HEAVY 140 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 very true, the one... ferret kent...i try to discourage them biting my fingers even in play, leave that to your kits, or make a toy, i use a small toy on a bit of string. they love it Quote Link to post
TOM HEAVY 140 Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 the sandy one is a demon, she already quite a bit bigger than the silver, can't wait to enter these, at what age does anyone feel that this is necessary? Quote Link to post
pie-eater 377 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Id wait until theyre at least 6 months then enter them on small warrens. 1 Quote Link to post
rabbit demon 302 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I use mine once they can tell the difference between your fingers and a moving rabbit skin, around 5 months when their proper nip trained, you can still get bit first few times when their chasing for real though.
